Who the heck am I???

Well...I'm an Artist, Teacher, Author & Biz Owner but my specialty lies ingetting you in touch with your long lost inner child through amazing art projects!

And I know what you're thinking..."But Karen, sounds awesome but I haven't created a piece of art since I was 5!"

Well the good news is that as long as you have a desire in your heart to learn, I can teach you regardless of your age, background or abilities (or lack thereof)!

We got this!

Wanna see some the kind of art making I am talking about?

You can check out hundreds of videos of the art I like to make and teach on my YouTube channel!

New videos (from full fledged lessons to quick inspirational timelapses) are posted every single week, 52 weeks a year.

Turns out I also have a hankering to whip up some of my bestest drawing and art tips in a collection of fun art books!

Oh look! Here's my latest right here!

Are you an art supply junkie but don't know EXACTLY how to mix and match your supplies to make smashing masterpieces rather than...a big hot mess? ​Than this book is for YOU!

I have a bunch of others too, check out my books tab above to learn more!(see? I told you I had a hankering!)

Let's just say I have a lot of givin' to give! But that's enough about me.

What Fans Are Saying

Karen, you are absolutely fabulous! You make me feel like I can draw anything. I have recently retired and finally have the time to do some of the art that I have loved since I was in school. I am really at the beginning of my art journey and I hope to learn as much as I can. Thank you for all you do.﻿

I ordered your Fun Fab Faces book and loved it! I was having a little trouble getting the noses I wanted and now it's easy! Also, I love how you stressed how important having the three tones in your drawing is. Thanks a bunch!

Thank you Karen! I never though I could do faces. You broke it down so it was understandable! And I love your book! I got it yesterday! Can't wait to start practicing! It's so much fun!!!!!
